300. Chapter 300 Game 300 Future Big Market
What is even more ridiculous is that on the famous website of many perverted netizens, a video of "Sun Li's third-level film in her early years" appeared. It was downloaded wildly, and the number of downloads reached 120,000 in just two days.
But after ten hours of downloading seeds, everyone clicked on it and found that there was just a Japanese actress who looked like Sun Li, playing the action movie of a flight attendant. While the perverts were disappointed, the Japanese actress who had not known had increased significantly.
Under the gaze of the perverts, in this series of films similar to Sun Li's Japanese actress, a male actor who was found to be a three-point similar to Li Xiaole. After this video was uploaded, it immediately became a popular one.
The screenshot of "Li Xiaole" holding "Sun Li" with a masochistic face also became the expressions of many QQ groups. The following text is: "Just follow me~~"
While there was a lot of controversy in the media, Li Xiaole was not idle either. For the sake of the movie promotion, he was invited to participate in the Phoenix TV program. Since Ge You and Zhang Guorong did not participate in the interview program, Li Xiaole also refused to invite him to "Lu Yu You Are Appointment" with Sun Li, but instead took another relatively relaxed program "Qianqiang Threesomes".
A simple and elegant studio was arranged, and the photography and recording equipment was facing the middle direction of Zhuhai women. A round table covered with white dining cloth was placed. Li Xiaole, who had just arrived at the recording site, was shaking hands with host Dou Wentao and guest Liang Wendao, who was wearing frameless glasses, chatting with Li Xiaole for a few words, and then jokingly said:
"Director Li, I heard that you made a movie in Japan, it's very popular." Liang Wendao also laughed beside him.
Li Xiaole could only smile helplessly, and the host teased that this matter was also one of the director's jobs.
However, on the show, these two well-informed media people are obviously much more serious. It is hard to imagine Liang Wendao, who is full of books and anger, also knows these things on the Internet.
After the three of them got a little right, they sat at the table according to the camera. The process of Qiangqiang Threesomes was very simple. They just set a theme to chat without rehearsing or editing. The theme they discussed today was "What do you think is the box office limit of mainland movies?"
The topics of eyes include the box office estimates of "If You Are the One" and the topics that are most related to audiences such as Ge You and Zhang Guorong's pay.
"I rarely go to the cinema now. Because I am too busy and I am afraid that I will be recognized by people, I only watch DVDs at home. However, if there are good movies in the mainland, I am willing to try them in the cinema."
Liang Wendao sat on the left side of the table on the front of the camera, looking at Li Xiaole sitting opposite him with a smile, and Dou Wentao in the middle of the front, and asked curiously:
"Director Lee, I think audiences with my idea are still very common in the Chinese area. Do you hate people like me?"
"Of course not." Li Xiaole smiled faintly and said, "Actually, like all ordinary people, I often watch CDs at home, and I watch pirated copies."
After saying this, Dou Wentao and Liang Wendao were both happy, and the director in the studio also compared a very good gesture.
Li Xiaole is no longer the rookie director who was nervous when he saw the camera. He is used to this kind of scene. Once he relaxes, this kind of program is familiar to people like him who often watch Taiwanese variety shows when he was a child. He continued:
"Just you said, whether the audience goes to the cinema or not is whether the movie is good or not. If the movie is good, the audience will definitely be willing to spend money to watch it. For example, the previous "Titanic" was released abroad for a year and went to cinemas in China, but it was not that good box office."
Dou Wentao laughed and said, "I can tell that, Director Li is praising his movies in a circle. Now "If You Are the One" is so popular. This proves the view that everyone is willing to go to the cinema to watch it~"
"I didn't say that." Li Xiaole laughed, and Dou Wentao continued to ask while taking advantage of this topic:
"Director Li, I'm not hiding you. I haven't watched your movie yet, but I'm very interested in the box office of your movie. I heard that the box office of your movie has exceeded the box office of "Hero" directed by Zhang Yimou in a single week. What is your expected box office of your movie? Liang Wendao, let's talk about your prediction first, and see if it's the same as Director Li's idea."
"This is very simple." Liang Wendao said slowly: "The strongest movies in general are the box office in the first two weeks. For example, "If You Are the One" has now reached 150 million in the first two weeks. I expect it to reach about 220 million in the end, which should not exceed the box office of "Hero" of 250 million. After all, it is not the kind of movie that is big-scenes."
"What do you think?" Dou Wentao looked at Li Xiaole and asked.
"Of course I hope the more I will be better." Li Xiaole smiled and said slowly:
"Actually, everyone thinks that the box office of "If You Are the One" cannot keep up with "Hero". The main reason is that the production of "Hero" is more refined. However, we are just guarding against piracy and the concealment and misreport of theaters, and there is still hope to surpass the book box office of "Hero". For example, there are still many theaters in the mainland that do not have computer ticketing systems installed. As far as I know, in our Chuzhe, there was a theater in Chuzhe who reported to the distribution company for ten screenings when "Hero" was released. I happened to send someone to supervise the screening of "Crazy Stone". I knew that they actually screened 70 "Heroes". I estimated that the real national box office of heroes was about 400 million.
We have done a lot of work in the management of theaters in this "If You Are the One" to avoid the vast majority of such situations, so the box office statistics should exceed expectations."
Li Xiaole said here, and after a close look, he said: "So, I expect the box office of "If You Are the One" should be around 300 million."
"300 million~?" Dou Wentao almost forgot that it was the live broadcast scene. He opened his mouth wide and looked at Liang Wendao and sighed: "To be honest, I admire Director Li's confidence. The box office of 300 million has already broken the record of "Hero". He is the champion of the history of mainland films. Wendao, do you think the mainland market has such a great digestibility?"
"I think it's possible. In 1998, "Titanic" had a box office of 3.5 billion yuan. Now China has developed for 6 years. The GDP has doubled, and the number of theaters and screens has increased significantly. Why can't our box office double?" Liang Wendao tapped the table with his finger, but immediately changed the subject: "But I still agree with Director Li. The most important thing is that the theaters must rectify well. First, there must be no pirated versions, and second, it is necessary to promote the computer ticketing system. These two points are the premise. Of course, this is almost impossible."
"Yes." Li Xiaole took the initiative to take the conversation and said:
"If we can do these two things quickly, even if the number of theaters and screens grows slowly, our box office will grow rapidly. As long as we integrate more resources in the mainland, we get more funds, and use good scripts, good actors, and good productions to create movies, filmmakers should not think about how to make money, but how to make movies well. As long as we make good movies, in the next few years, not to mention 300 million, 500 million, 600 million, and 100 million are possible.
Every time I think, I can lie in the comfortable chair in the cinema for only a few dozen dollars, and quietly watch the touching stories. Who would refuse this kind of enjoyment?"
Dou Wentao smiled and said, "Director Li pointed out the key. Don't think about money, but transformed into making good movies, shoot those touching and beautiful things in life, and release everyone's feelings. I think everything is a money-making movie? First of all, it is a good movie, which can be a money-making movie."
The three of them talked about their movie stories again, and 30 minutes passed quickly.
After the recording of the program, Dou Wentao shook hands with Li Xiaole and said thankfully: "Director Li, thank you for your cooperation with the effect of the program. You are the most daring guest who comes to us."
"I didn't dare to say it, what I said is what I thought." Li Xiaole shook his hands with him, laughing and crying.
"You said that our box office will exceed 500 million or 1 billion within a few years, which is serious?" Dou Wentao said and laughed, and he held Li Xiaole's shoulder vigorously: "Director Li is so humorous, he must come to participate in our show more in the future."
A few days later, Phoenix TV broadcast this episode of "Changqiang Threesomes", but not only had movie fans, but even the media treated it as a joke. What? The highest movie last year was only 50 million yuan, and a box office of 500 million yuan a few years later? What is Li Fengkuan's crazy declaration this time?
However, "Crazy Mi" used the cute face of fans and issued a call on Li Xiaole's fan website that in order to realize Li Crazy Ruoyan, as long as Li Crazy makes a movie in the future, everyone will buy two tickets to support it, and post the tickets on the website to show loyalty.
On the other hand, netizens began to ridicule Li Xiaole's arrogant remarks. In the Tianya Theory, a student of film and television major even published a post titled "Use data to prove how ridiculous Li Crazy's 1 billion remarks are." The post lists the data on the growth rate of box offices of major film countries such as the United States, India, and France in various periods.
The final conclusion was: "If a single Chinese film wants to exceed one billion yuan, it will be as early as 21 years."
Under such a high-profile topic, although the box office of "If You Are the One" in the third week declined compared with the previous week, it still reached an astonishing box office of 82.3 million, with a total box office of 230 million, almost 100% exceeding the mainland record of "Hero".
While the outside world was in full swing, the one who really felt the huge shock was the senior figures in the film industry...
